The Planet D Nonet
The Planet D Nonet, a Detroit-based swing band, played Friday, September 30, 2016, at 9 p.m. at Cliff Bell’s. Founded by drummer RJ Spangler and trumpeter James O’Donnell, they mix classic and modern jazz with a Detroit twist.
The Planet D Nonet is a nine-piece group featuring a mix of veterans and young players from Detroit's notable jazz bands like the Sun Messengers and Bon Ton Roule’. They performed works by Ellington, Basie, and newer jazz composers with plenty of humor and respect for classic American songs. The show offered swing, blues, and space-age jazz at Cliff Bell’s for a $10 ticket.
